We are looking for a highly motivated, process-driven Inside Sales Representative to be the engine of our growth.

The Role

The Inside Sales Representative (ISR) is the critical first point of contact for our prospective clients. In this role, your primary objective is not to sell IT services over the phone.

• Qualifying Leads: Identify if a prospect fits our ideal client profile by asking high-level business questions and uncovering their current operational challenges.
• Selling the Value: Challenge prospects to "look at technology differently," focusing the conversation on business results, risk management, and strategy rather than technical specifications.
• Pipeline Management: Meticulously track all activities, conversations, and follow-ups in our CRM. Build and maintain a clean, high-quality pipeline of future opportunities.
• Target Achievement: Consistently meet or exceed weekly and monthly quotas for dials, meaningful conversations, and appointments set.

What We Are Looking For

• Phone Stamina: You have zero call reluctance and thrive in an environment that requires a high volume of daily outbound dials.
• Business Acumen: You can confidently speak with CEOs, Presidents, and business owners, understanding their high-level business concerns.
• Process-Oriented: You believe in following a proven, metric-driven sales process and understand that consistent daily inputs lead to predictable outputs.

• Excellent Communicator: Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to quickly build rapport and handle objections effectively.
• Experience: 1-3 years of outbound B2B sales or lead generation experience is preferred. Experience in the Managed IT Services (MSP) industry is a plus, but not required.

What We Offer

• Competitive base salary + incentives based on appointments held and closed deals.
• Comprehensive training on our specific sales process and framework.
• Clear metrics for success and ongoing professional coaching.

This role is responsible for driving daily operations while ensuring that complex, project-based work—such as structural and architectural metal components—is delivered accurately, efficiently, and on schedule.

This position requires someone who understands the pace and demands of the construction industry, can interpret detailed shop drawings, and knows how to lead fabrication teams to produce high-quality work that meets field requirements and installation timelines. You will act as the key link between engineering, project management, and the shop floor, ensuring that what is designed can be built—and built right the first time.

What You’ll Do

• Lead all day-to-day plant operations, keeping production aligned with project schedules and customer deadlines.
• Oversee fabrication of custom metal products such as structural components, stairs, railings, frames, and other project-specific assemblies.
• Review and interpret shop drawings, blueprints, and specifications to ensure accuracy and manufacturability before work begins.

• Champion a strong safety culture by enforcing OSHA standards, conducting training, and maintaining a clean, organized shop environment.
• Lead, mentor, and hold accountable supervisors, welders, fabricators, and machine operators.
• Manage materials, including steel and other metals, ensuring availability aligns with project timelines.
• Oversee equipment usage and maintenance to keep the shop running efficiently with minimal downtime.
• Drive continuous improvement across fabrication processes, including the use of new tools, equipment, and technologies.
• Improve coordination between office and shop by strengthening processes around drawing revisions, change orders, and production communication.
• Track key metrics such as productivity, scrap, and on-time delivery, using data to guide decisions.
